It's not very clear in the picture, but the "blade" further from the camera has a right-angle cut out of it, which the nearer "blade" fits into when the "scissors" are closed. They are not made for cutting, but for creasing, or so it seems!
All my life I have been told they are for opening out the fingers on gloves after washing....it was only when we (mum and I) actually LOOKED at them last weekend that we realised poking the closed "blades" into a glove finger and "opening" them as far as possible was OK, but didn't explain this right-angled creasing bit!
